how much amount of heat energy is required to convert 5 kg of ice at - 5° c into 100°c steam?​

Sagot :

Assuming no heat lost to the surrounding,

-5⁰C ice → 0⁰C ice

Specific heat capacity of ice = 2.0 x 10³ J/kg/⁰C

Q = mc∆θ

Q = 5(2.0 x 10³) x (0-(-5))

Q = 50000J

0⁰C ice → 0⁰C water

Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.34 x 10⁵J/kg

Q = mLf

Q = 5(3.34 x 10⁵)

Q = 1670000J

0⁰C water → 100⁰C water

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 x 10³ J/kg/⁰C

Q = mc∆θ

Q = 5(4.2 x 10³) x (100-0)

Q = 2100000J

100⁰C water → 100⁰C steam

Specific latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.26 x 10⁶ J/kg

Q = mLv

Q = 5(2.26 x 10⁶)

Q = 11300000J

Total amount of heat required

= 50000 + 1670000 + 2100000 + 11300000

= 15120000J
